Hi, I would like to know if there's any alternatives that can replace break-beam sensors in this situation — a gate that counts how many people has passed through using a sensor implemented on one side.
If there aren't any alternatives, can an ultrasonic sensor be used to replace the break-beam sensor? e.g. When a person passed through the gate, the ultrasonic sensor detects a pulse of nearby presence, which the signal is feed into the microcontroller and adds 1.
